Mehso-so

Borderland is an intense speculative eco-horror YA novel. It felt oddly dissonant to me in that the content is fairly mature, but the language/prose skews a little young. The pacing is also a bit odd; it has a slow build, then a rapid-fire resolution. As for the story itself, I really liked how Akhurst depicted differences and division within the First Nations community. Full review: https://keepingupwiththepenguins.com/borderland-graham-akhurst/
